dude, dark color cars get chosen to be worked on. wash your car the day before the meet and you'll have a good chance of having your car chosen perzbenz.

you can do your own. for demonstations and practice they use dark colors usually because it shows more of a difference. PM me questions on the meguairs meet, i dont wanna hi-jack this thread any more! sorry BenzoBoi!

Hey there,
We just got word that we can have a March/April build on our 2005 E55 wagon. Now all we have to do is agree on a color. I want burgandy he wants Platinum blue. He says since I chose the olor on the SLK55 he gets to chose this one :-( Good news is we might have it for the next meet IF we don't do a Euro pickup.

It really doesn't suprise me that HPS didn't show. This isn't the first time they have flaked.
Good idea. I'll send you a P.M. when it gets back, supposed to be tomorrow. Man this looks better than I expected. Some awesome rides guys. Who owns that N2O SL?? That's sick.

That beautiful car belongs to a member on this board. I believe his name is Bliss. He roams the boards everyone once in a while. Awesome car...

^^ Believe that car belongs to Evosport. Not exactly sure what kind of mods it has other than the bodykit.

Why? What happened? Did it do a burnout or something?

That would really be a shame if that was the case. I know Adam never fails to take an opportunity to take a shot at us or me personally, but from our perspective I would always want as many people and vendors to come to each meet. We are all enthusiasts and although we may not all agree on everything, i think we can agree that the cars are what it is about and it is great to share that with other like-minded folks.

Sorry I could not make it. We had a deal going on at Sparco that day also, and I had a BMW race car displayed there.

We would love them. Let me know how to get them.

That is one of our cars. It is my father's daily driver. It has one of the trickest exhausts that we ever built. A true quad with all SS mandrel bends.

We also did a lot of fender work to get bigger rubber and more aggressive stance while keeping stock look.

Car is really sweet, and might actually be for sale soon if anyone is interested.

Any questions, just hit me up!

Thanks,

Brad

I'd be interested to know why the no show myself. Actually wanted the opportunity to talk with everyone, and ended up working instead! This has got to stop. Anyway, look forward to meeting you and your crew as well as the other board members. It is about the cars. Great pics of the rides you had there. I'm sorry to have missed this.
